Thanks for the reply.

I am using the same failedJobCommandFactory to make retry to 0 after exception.

And in one of link above the code changes has been done to activiti code which I don't want. If 'failedJobCommandFactory' is only solution I will continue to use it. Wanted to know if there is out of box configuration or hook mechanism by which we can set retry to as 0 to global so that I dont have to write failedJobCommandFactory implementation.

Sometime if activiti-engine is terminated in mid of workflow execution failed job command factory will not be called and when activiti is started it will again start retrying ( I even dont want retry in that case as well) .

Mahesh.
